Aquilignum

Tree type: Deciduous (Stores water in its leaves)

This huge tree grows up to 100 meters (328.1 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 200 years old. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a very thick, curved trunk covered in hard, rough, brown-green bark, and inside, the hard wood is burgundy.

The branches are short, rigid and upright and are covered with large amounts of smooth, giant, slender, pointed leaves with smooth edges. The leaves themselves are aquamarine at the bottom and lilac with black dots at the top.

In late summer it forms medium-sized, white aril (seeds with fleshy covers).

The roots grow as a near perfect mirror of the tree above, and overall the tree is sturdy and difficult to uproot.

Forests of this species feature the trees packed together densely, with clear space between them.


It is suitable for creating flexible, durable textiles
It only grows on the most fertile lands.
